Frank Lampard underlined his continued value to Chelsea by scoring both goals in their 2-1 win at Everton Sunday as they went third in the English Premier League.

South African Steven Pienaar gave Everton a second minute lead but former England international Lampard turned the game around for the visitors.

The 34-year-old is out of contract at the end of the season and reports have been linking him with a move away from the west London giants, even as early as the January transfer window.

"I know there is a lot of speculation and talk but I just want to continue playing,'' Lampard told Sky Sports after the match.

"I will always have Chelsea in me for life."

During his 12 years at the club, Lampard's goal tally from midfield has always proved a key factor in Chelsea's success and his well-placed 42nd minute header canceled out Pienaar's earlier opportunist effort.
